Your Worst Crash

[Tarant]

Today I was racing around and hit a cement pipe going about 30mph and my entire front end was almost broken off. The only thing that was holding my front end on were the turn buckles.Broke both bulkheads and the skid plate.
So I was wondering what was you worst crash ever.

My worst crash was when i had my old nitro 4-tec pro and the batteries died and it went wide WOT into a curb and flew up in the the air and did to flips. When i got there the front end was off and the chassis was bent a little.

4th break in tank on a Brand new Losi XXXNT... Starting to do some WOT runs up & down the street. Managed to lose control on a WOT return run, clipping the tire of a parked car with my right front tire.. Basically sheared the right side of my Losi clean off.... That sucked... Lesson learned...

Christmas Eve my neighbor got an OFNA 1/8 scale road car.....I helped him start it and explained he needed to break in the engine and how it had to be done....3 econd easy accelerate and stop for a whole tank..then I'll show you what to do next....He figures 3 mins of this is enough goes WOT coming towards my Buggy that I'm just letting warm up and creams it at top speed......my R carrier, R Axle, CHub, R Fr Shock and Tower, THe Rear Left shock and Tower....and bashed the body to where it's unusable.....it was my first painted Body for my 9.5...all the parts he broke were graphite upgrades and the shocks were Kyoshos......maybe I shouldn't get some people involved in my stress relieving hobby......he paid for the damage though.....but I tried to run the bent shaft last nite and it didn't work too well....I'm bummed...Oh well I guess I need to get my Fantom broken in on my Mutant now for wed nite

my worst crash happened last friday -- just after I got my wasp .26 broken in.
It kept doin wheelies and looping itself. I didn't notice that on the last loop, it took off 1/2 the antenna, so after it got about 15 feet from me it took off WOT for about 50 feet str8 into a curb. broke the radio box and TVPs, and the front gear box, skid plate, front alum. bulk plate and also made a few small cracks in the 2-speed case and other little broken or tweaked parts. Live and learn I guess , I don't think I will driving any of my r/c's without a fail safe or at least a throttle return spring.

My worst crash was with my NTC3. Went to the local spot and decided to do some highspeed passes on the back straight. I didn't notice a little ripple in the asphalt. The car clipped it, barrel rolled and flipped end over end landing on the engine (I had no body on).

Upon closer inspection the next day, I noticed fuel being spit out the side of the engine. I cracked the block of my Rody Roem Modified RB X12 5 port! Lesson learned ... Never run without a lid!

my worst crash was when i took my nitro stampede and jumped it about 6-7 feet into the air and it started flipping luckily nothing was broke but my battery pack fell off.

Actually Snowboarding 4 years ago.....going all out racing friends down the face, got cocky and decided to BS 180 to nose slide going as fast as I can down a BLK Dmnd and caught my heel side edge so hard it split the board from the edge....ripped my binding and the inserts out of the torsion box.....tore my pants down the leg.....ripped my jacket from sliding down the mountain so fast and tore the sole off a boot....that was the only time I ever had to be dead sledded down......

I hand a nitro st-15 and i was like just masking with it and i just got it started and i forgot to tack the antenna out all the way so my car whent out of rang and it went like out of cantrol. It hit the carb that was like a jump and it whent flying into a car and put a big skrach in it. It was a old car so i don't thing any one card so that good. but it was crazy.

the other night I was driving the NMT around and doing jumps next to the road where the drain pipe runs under the driveway and it went straight into the pipe I guess my depth perception was a little off. well besides almost losing my whole car after it got stuck some 15 feet in there ( the hole was too small for me to fit into) nothing was broken but it sure was funny to jsut see it disapear
